Roofing in Harwich and Dovercourt
Old Harwich is a conservation area with many listed buildings on narrow streets, and old slate and clay tile roofs that need matching materials and careful access. Dovercourt has Victorian and Edwardian terraces and villas near the front, then inter-war and post-war housing further back.
On an exposed coast, the usual jobs are storm damage repairs, refixing ridges and verges, renewing chimney lead and replacing flat roofs on garages and extensions.
